seeing the new splash arts for the five project skins- and then comparing them to the art from when league first started was kind of baffling to say the least...

Oh, but that pose breaks her spine and is anatomically impossible! For all your fidelity, you have no excuse now!

I'm just waiting for someone to say it.

Have to agree with this particular case, that new splash looks amazing.

This is not always the case, and someone with a name like yours SHOULD know this.

Compared to the really crappy base splash Kat has now, this new one is just a horrifically bad downgrade. The ability to produce fantastic new art is certainly a strength of Riot, but failure to admit and fix failed splash arts is a completely different story. No champion should get a splash upgrade that is a actual massive downgrade.

RIP good kat splash.

But the old splashes used the in-game models :/ so I'm not sure it's a fair comparison.

The first generation of splash arts ware just the character in-game models retouched, they would just recolor a still from the 3D model.

Riot's art is inspiring, top notch work. Imagine what it'll be like in a few years!
